Quote from Ron Swanson in How a Bill Becomes a Law
Diane Lewis: Lemonade?
Ron Swanson: Please and thank you.
Diane Lewis: Hey, I'm sorry if I was curt earlier. I'm a single mom, and sometimes things get chaotic around here. When you showed up from the Parks Department--
Ron Swanson: No need to apologize. I understand completely. This is delicious.
Diane Lewis: Well, I got it from Food and Stuff, so--
Ron Swanson: That's where I got these gloves.
Diane Lewis: Right? So, how exactly are you gonna fix this hole? Just for my own edification.
Ron Swanson: Uh, I dug the loose gravel out of the hole. Now I'm using a jackhammer to remove the larger pieces, then I'll spray down the hole to settle the dust and fill it with cold patch asphalt.
Diane Lewis: Well, thank you. Now I can fix the next one myself.
